P-wave imaging in gas cloud zones is often challenging in both onshore and offshore hydrocarbon-rich areas.Blurred P-wave images in gas cloud zones severely affect structural interpretation and reservoir charac-terization.This paper aims to investigate the imaging capabilities of P-and S-wave seismic data in onshore and offshore gas cloud zones.First,a velocity model of the gas cloud zone is constructed by integrating surface seis-mic data and vertical seismic profiling(VSP)data.Seismic-wave forward modeling is then performed using the acoustic,viscoacoustic,and elastic wave equations.Joint analysis of synthetic and field data confirms that the scattering effects of shallow low-velocity scatterers on the seismic wavefield are the primary cause of blurred P-wave imaging in gas cloud zones.To improve the accuracy of P-wave imaging in gas cloud zones,a high-resolu-tion shallow velocity model needs to be obtained through inversion,and reverse time migration should be ap-plied to restore the images within these zones.Furthermore,joint analysis of synthetic and field seismic data demonstrates that converted S-waves and pure S-waves are less sensitive to shallow gas-bearing scatterers and have significant advantages over P-waves in imaging gas cloud zones.Pure S-waves provide the most effective means of addressing seismic imaging problems in gas cloud zones.
